Method

Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Peel the potatoes and cut them into long chip shapes – the thickness you do is entirely up to you, though the width of your finger is ideal. Rinse under the cold tap and pat dry with a tea towel.

Spread the chips on a large non-stick baking tray and toss with oil and celery salt. Lie them fl at in a single layer – use two trays rather than overcrowd one. Roast for 45-50 mins, turning now and then. When cooked they should be golden brown and crisp with a light fluffy centre. Scatter on sea salt to serve.

Simple, yet delicious. It is a healthier alternative to deep fried chips and I found that I enjoyed them much more! You could really taste the potato, while the outside had this nice golden brown "skin".They were really easy to make as well. No more store bought frozen chips for me!

I didn't think these were that great. For a start, the oven temperature was too low. All ovens are different so probably partly my fault. I finished them off in the pan and they were OK. I also used high quality potatoes, so who knows!

Wow! These were fabulous. I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out wonderfully. I will definitely be making these again. I served them with river cobbler with lemon juice, garlic & fresh parsley, and also baked beans. Who needs a chip shop!?! :-)

I've always found par boiling for a few minutes makes any of these oven roasted chips/wedges better, it depends how much time I have whether I bother or not. Didnt realise there was a recipe for it tho. If you can get hold of sumac then try it on your chips, fab!

I didn't think these were that great. Mine didn't turn out like those in the picture either. They took ages and in the end still weren't really cooked enough. I'm going to try the very similar Gordon Ramsey recipe which has tons more good reviews. The only reason I tried this one first was to avoid par boiling first..In fairness my oven is absolutely rubbish!

Have tried these a few times (they are slimming world recommended - except for the oil) but they never turn out like the picture. They are still nice but I'm going to try again in the hope that they look as appetising.

These are amazing!!I'm desperately trying to stop my dad from eating fried foods and unfortunately he loves take away chips. He loved these so much, I think maybe even more than all the fast food chain chips put together :]

Instead of laying the chips in a pan and then sprinkling with the oil, put the chips into a saucepan with the oil, put the lid on and give it a good shake. The chips will be evenly coated and when baked will taste absolutely scrumptious!
